Josh Reviews the Latest DC Animated Film: Batman and Harley Quinn
The character of Harley Quinn is extremely popular these days, with a much-loved solo series published by DC comics and a leading role in the recent (terrible) Suicide Squad film. And so it’s not a huge surprise that the folks behind the series of DC direct-to-DVD/blu-ray movi
Star Trek Returns to Television (Sort Of) With Star Trek: Discovery!
The first time I can remember being aware of and excited about Star Trek was when Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home came out in 1986. I must have been exposed to Star Trek before that, because I was excited to see that movie in theatres. But I don’t think I’d seen the prio
Josh Reviews Wet Hot American Summer: Ten Years Later!
I like David Wain’s 2001 film Wet Hot American Summer, but I absolutely adored the 2015 Netflix miniseries First Day of Camp. The success of that endeavor clearly inspired creators David Wain and Michael Showalter to come back for another go. The new miniseries, Ten Years La

Josh Enjoys Seeing Close Encounters of the Third Kind Back on the Big Screen!
About a week after seeing the new 3D release of James Cameron’s Terminator 2: Judgment Day, I got to see one of the 40th anniversary screenings of Close Encounters of the Third Kind. I can’t believe this film is forty years old!!! Close Encounters is one of my very fav
Josh Enjoys Seeing Terminator 2: Judgment Day Back on the Big Screen!
As I have written here before, I love the idea of revival showings of great classic movies. It is a special treat to get to see a terrific older movie back on the big screen, where it belongs! I wish this was done more often. It’s a pleasure whenever a studio gets behind t

Let’s begin with this awesome new trailer for season 4 of Black Mirror: I cannot wait!! The original British episodes of this series are works of near-genius, and I thought the recent Netflix-produced season was pretty great. I am so glad that this show lives on via Netflix!
